begins

required for multi-day holidays - This is the starting date for a multi-day holiday.

ends

required for multi-day holidays - This is the ending date for a multi-day holiday.

date

required for single-day holidays - This is the date of a single-day holiday. (If you use the week_ordinal/weekday/month parameters below, date will default to a phrase like "First Sunday in January". Otherwise it has no default and is required.). Specific phrases for other rules are decoded in Template:Infobox holiday/date. Sample: "first Thursday after 18 April". If no value is given, the value of d:Property:P837 of the holiday's Wikidata item is displayed instead.

date୨୦୧୬

highly recommended for holidays that don't stay on the same Gregorian date - This is the Gregorian date on which the holiday will occur in ୨୦୧୬. At the end of ୨୦୧୬, this will be replaced with dateପ୍ରକାଶନରେ ଅସୁବିଧା: ଅଜଣା ଚିହ୍ନ "�" ।, which will later be replaced with dateପ୍ରକାଶନରେ ଅସୁବିଧା: ଅଜଣା ଚିହ୍ନ "�" ।. Therefore, it's a good idea to specify the Gregorian date for a few future years. (Not necessary if week_ordinal/weekday/month are specified instead.)

the frequency with which the holiday or observance re-occurs. Sample values: "annual", "weekly", "monthly"

week_ordinal, weekday, month

For days that are observed on the same day of the same week every year, these specify the week (week_ordinal), day of the week (weekday), and month. If you use these, you no longer have to specify dateପ୍ରକାଶନରେ ଅସୁବିଧା: ଅଜଣା ଚିହ୍ନ "�" ।, date୨୦୧୬, dateପ୍ରକାଶନରେ ଅସୁବିଧା: ଅଜଣା ଚିହ୍ନ "�" ।, etc. If you specify week_ordinal, then weekday and month are required also.

recommended for holidays that don't stay on the same Gregorian date - The template will display the previous and next year's dates along with that of the current year, if they are provided. Again, it's a good idea to provide dates for a few years further into the future as well. (Not necessary if week_ordinal/weekday/month are specified instead.)

mdy

if set to a non-blank value, auto-formatted dates will be displayed in "month day, year" format instead of the default "day month year" order.

firsttime

first time/year the holiday was observed (if available)

lasttime

last time/year the holiday was observed (if no longer observed)

celebrations

This contains the celebrations that occur on the holiday.

observances

This contains essentially the same thing as the celebrations attribute. However, the word observances is used. This may be more appropriate than celebrations when referring to prayer or more solemn observances. Most likely, you will not need both celebrations and observances.
